Abstract
Extremism has adopted sometimes a religious and sometimes a secular form, it has been espoused by states and by non-state actors, but both are equally intolerant of difference. Right-wing extremism refers to political thought that tends to be radically conservative, ultra-nationalist and authoritarian. The right-wing authoritarian drive is based on repressive social conservatism that legitimises dangerous paths against democracy, individual rights and social justice (Gokay, 2017). Right-wing shifts often result from volatile and chaotic international conditions, within which classes and social forces are subordinated to states: state security, state power and state interests.
